Reliable DRC Voltage Text Annotation Means Faster And More Accurate DRC Verification
By Abdellah Bakhali - 14 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

As the potential for complex interactions between voltage domains grows significantly with the increase in design density at each new process node, the complexity of spacing checks in design rule checking (DRC) also increases. To minimize these types of risk, many simple spacing checks have evolved to become voltage-aware DRC (VA-DRC) checks that incorporate voltage values to determine the requ... » read more

ESD P2P And CD Verification Doesn’t Have To Be Hard
By Abdellah Bakhali - 24 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

As a designer or verification engineer, you’re fighting the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) in your integrated circuit (IC) designs all the time. ESD is one of those frustrating issues that can challenge even the most experienced designers. Once an IC is in the market, unexpected electrical shorts will cause immediate failure or dielectric breakdown will result in gradual circuit deg... » read more

A Reliable I/O Ring For A Reliable SoC
By Abdellah Bakhali - 26 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

What is an input/output (I/O) ring, and why should I care about it? If you’re a system-on-chip (SoC) designer, you had better know the answer to that question. SoCs are the darlings of the semiconductor industry—they combine all the typical functionality of a computer (central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output (I/O) ports, and storage) on a single chip. They’re particularly popu... » read more
